About Daune
She frames therapy as a partnership. Clients are treated as the experts in their own stories while Daune offers guidance, listening, and tools to manage emotions and everyday problems. Conversations focus on what feels most urgent and what can change in small, manageable ways.
Daune brings long experience from practice in Florida and North Carolina to concerns that often overlap, such as caregiver stress, aging and geriatric issues, and chronic illness or pain. She also addresses workplace stress, money worries, postpartum depression, and recovery after traumatic brain injury. Hospice and end-of-life counseling is part of her background and is approached with sensitivity.
Sessions tend to be straightforward and goal-oriented. People can expect practical techniques, chances to reflect on values and purpose, and help building coping strategies. The pace and focus are set together to match each person's needs.
Daune aims to make the process less intimidating. She supports people as they take steps toward clearer thinking, steadier moods, and better coping with life's changes.

Approaches for grief, stress, and life transitions
Daune uses evidence-based therapeutic techniques focused on practical change and emotional processing. One approach she uses helps people identify unhelpful thinking patterns and replace them with clearer, more realistic thoughts to reduce anxiety and low mood. This method is useful for worry, depression, and stressful decision-making.Another approach centers on processing grief and loss through guided conversations and meaning-making. This helps people make sense of difficult emotions, remember what matters, and find ways to carry on with purpose. These methods are suited to hospice and end-of-life concerns as well as other major losses.
Finding the right approach is a collaborative process. The therapist and client review goals, try techniques, and adjust the plan together. Daune will help determine which methods fit the client's needs, pace, and preferences as therapy progresses.
Session formats are not listed in the biography, so please confirm current options before booking. Many people find online work helpful for fitting sessions into a busy life, shortening commute time, and allowing check-ins during breaks. Online sessions can make it easier to maintain continuity during caregiving responsibilities or when mobility is limited, while still focusing on practical steps and emotional support.
